Patricia on why she took her role on 'Medium' Patricia: I wanted to play a woman who looks normal. It's important for me to be real.
On being a family-orientated, down-to-earth person in Hollywood. Patricia: I’m comfortable in this business. Maybe because my dad was an actor, as well as my grandparents and great-grandparents. And I also know that it’s a fickle business so I don’t trust it. There’s a lot I actually hate about it. But I do love acting and I do love the weird family that you create on set.
On what attracted her to Medium. Patricia: I really liked the relationship I was reading…and the complications of having this kind of macabre, dark world, and trying to have a happy family at the same time. It seemed like a lot of conflict and that’s always interesting to play.
On her son following in her footsteps. Patricia: His teachers all say he’s really talented, but I don’t know what he wants to do. Right now, he just wants girls and music!
